The Amish Don’t Get Autism, But they Also Don’t Vaccinate

People outside the alternative health community are often confused by the lack of autism in the Amish people. The Amish do not experience autism, or most of the other learning disabilities that plague our technological society. They live in a society that consists of outdated technologies and ideals, at least by contemporary standards.

Their diet consists of eating organic, fresh, locally-grown produce, and of course, they do not follow the established vaccination routines. To the dismay of the mainstream media and the medical establishment, this has resulted in a healthier people, who are void of all of our chronic diseases. Heart disease, cancer, and diabetes are virtually non-existent in Amish villages. Equally non-existent are our modern, chemically-engineered medicines, enhanced (chemically engineered) foods, G.M.O. (genetically engineered) foods, and of course, vaccines. How is it that those who are without the so-called “miracles” of modern orthodox medicine are healthier? The truth about health, medicine, and how they both relate to the Amish has become an embarrassment to some rather powerful people.

There have been 3 (yes three) verified cases of autism in the Amish, and two of those children were vaccinated. No information is available for the third child, who was likely vaccinated himself. The strong correlation between vaccinations and autism is becoming undeniable, unless you work for the medical establishment (pharmaceutical company), the government, or the Adveritising companies called Mainstream Media. Proponents of the status quo actually claim that the Amish must have a super gene that makes them immune to autism. They rationalize that autism must be some type of genetic failure, which attacks brains based on religious affiliations. It is truly the best of F.D.A. and A.M.A. science in all its shining glory. Vaccine proponents are willing to espouse any ridiculous explanation, so long as they do not have to accept that their industry is causing chronic disease. Due to all their help, children in the United States have a stunning 2% chance of developing autism, and that percentage is growing rapidly.

Government Harrasment

The Amish are constantly harassed by health officials, who attempt to convince them to vaccinate their children. Whilst most Amish still refuse to vaccinate their children, a small minority are beginning to succumb to the scare tactics. This continues despite the fact that health officials actually have no legal right to visit peoples’ homes and harass them into accepting ‘medications’. As more of the Amish vaccinate, the autism rates in their community will rise. Fortunately, the majority of the Amish still contend that vaccinations are against God’s will, which interestingly enough, does indeed seem to be bringing about many health blessings.

Many of the viruses which children are vaccinated against are no longer circulating. However, fear tactics by the media have led frightened parents to vaccinate their children against these viruses anyway. One of those viruses is polio. Dr. Sherri Tenpenny reported that the most recent case seen in the Western Hemisphere was in Peru, in 1991. The World Health Organization (W.H.O.) declared the Western hemisphere free of Polio in 1994. Such inconvenient figures are not cited by the mainstream media, doctors, or the American Medical Association.

On October 14, 2005, the media swung into hysteria after the vaccine-strain of the polio virus was found in the stools of four Amish children. The media initially declined to mention that it was the chemically-inactivated version, which is only found inside the orally-given vaccine. This means that the source for the out-break was the vaccine itself. The situation was sensationally exploited to terrorize parents who had been avoiding vaccines.

“During the polio epidemics, it was found that people who had their tonsils removed were 3 – 5 times more likely to develop paralysis… There were many at that time that suggested that polio was an iatrogenic disease[caused by the medical establishment] … we caused thousands of cases of paralysis. We did not cause the polio, but we converted people who would have recovered from a viral illness into people with a paralytic illness.”The horrors of polio were greatly exaggerated by the allopathic establishment’s across-the-board removal of tonsils, which is the only organ that produces polio antibodies. Around the same time, the newly-created F.D.A. began suppressing the use of silver in medicines, which was the only safely-digestable substance that was known to kill viruses (like polio). Finally, ‘the solution’ that industry desired, namely a vaccine, was released at the time that the epidemic was naturally ending, so that the industry’s vaccine could be given credit. All of this was orchestrated to manipulate the masses into buying into vaccines, radiation, and chemistry for health.

– Dr. Mark Donohoe

With vaccinations, we convert people who may have had natural immune-strengthening infections like the flu, or chickenpox into people who have life-changing disorders like autism. None of the Amish children who had polio in their stools experienced paralysis, or any other horrific symptoms. That fortunate conclusion to their infections is likely the result of them lacking the ‘miracles’ of allopathic medicine. //Kristan Harris

They also don’t venture far from their environment which they are more likely not to get exposed to all of the viral bacteria that is out there. There is something to that life style I admire. But all factors must be entered in to the theory of this post.

They also of a common ansestry plus are inbred. Both must be addressed before a blanket statement can be made. Further, this implies “no vaccination” = “no autism”, IOW: vaccination is the cause of autism. if this is true then autism should have never existed prior to widespread vaccinations. But this is not the case as there are forensically determined cases going back centuries. there are other issues with grabbing numbers including, but not limited to: definition (for example Japan did not have a diagnostic criteria for HIV in the 80s/90s so they had no cases reported), education of criteria (Asparger’s for example). Also, lesser developed countries tend to have a higher incidence rate than well developed countries. Given they are less likely to vaccinate fully the incidence rates should be lower according to implication of this headline. the incidence rate in Denmark actually increased after the vaccines removed thiomersal, again a counrintuitive result. Several studies (Canada, Japan) have shown no links. The Wakefield paper that started the controversary has been retracted and proven fradulant. At the time of the paper Wakefield had developed a vaccine to compete with the MMR vaccine, IOW there was a sizeable monetary conflict of issue. Further, adjusting for population and using the pre-vaccination incidence rate the US could expect 1.5 million case per year if there were no vaccinations.

I have researched it.. they haven’t proved it either way.. About the vaccines.. But I do believe in vaccines.. But if a parent doesn’t want to.. That’s they choice.. I do not care.. All I am saying is you can do all these things and still get sick.
